Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons WhyLearn How To Protect Your Health with the Completement Formulas by usingour Total Body ReSet and Total Body Immunity protocols. (See Appendix A.)INTRODUCTIONTotal Body Meltdown: Where Nothing Works and Everything Hurts describes thecurrent state of health of many of our customers who are trapped in a health caresystem that is more about the system than about the care. Traditionally, when youare suffering Total Body Meltdown, you are shunted into a system that separatesyou into body parts, treating each part individually with an FDA-approved drug orsurgery.As you will see, we put the “care” back in healthcare with my Total BodyReSet, which is designed to relieve you of the stress of thinking that your Total BodyMeltdown is due to a dozen different health conditions, that your genes aremalfunctioning, or that you need extensive medical testing and dozens of drugs andsupplements.In the following pages I’m going to discuss how to ReSet Your Body to itsDefault Setting of Total Health; The Layers of Illness; The Downward Spiral; andThe Sixty-Five Magnesium Deficiencies that are often misdiagnosed as individualdiseases. I will also show how each of these symptoms begins at the same startingpoints – Magnesium Deficiency and Yeast Overgrowth.With a combination of luck, common sense, and decades of research, I’vecome to this conclusion and managed to implement a protocol that resets the bodyat the cellular level and allows its natural healing power to “be in the driver’s seat.”My approach is the opposite of allopathic medicine. I seek natural,commonsense solutions to illness. In contrast, allopathic medicine digs deeper intothe minutia of the body, blaming genes, mitochondrial failure, lack of vaccines, anddrug resistance for their failure to end the epidemic of chronic disease.3Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons WhyEven their newest offering, Biologic Drugs, do not support the body’s naturaldrive for wellness. Let me explain what I mean. Now that vaccines are under attack,Big Pharma is advancing what they call Biologic Drugs as their new Holy Grail. ABiologic Drug is a product that is produced from living organisms or containcomponents of living organisms. I suppose the word biologic is meant to assuagepeople’s fears about synthetic drugs. But Big Pharma really has no control over thesedrugs that may go rogue at the drop of a molecule. More precisely, the body’ssurveillance systems and the trillions of microorganisms in the gut could turn thesebiologics into something quite dangerous.The other downsides are that biologics are expensive, can only be given byinjection, and are so new that we don’t have proper long-term studies on them.Additionally, any “new” class of drugs will benefit from the placebo effect of“newness” in the beginning stages. It’s not until the dust settles that we truly knowthe fallout from any new class of drugs.That’s why I take the high road and support the body at the cellular level tohave all the nutrients in play that will allow the body to make perfect cells andcontinue its mandate to keep us alive and healthy. Of course, this is something drugcompanies will never get behind because what I do is not patented and notcontrolled by Big Pharma, Big Medicine, and Big Money.Another challenge in dealing with Total Body Meltdown is that some holisticpractitioners mimic allopathic medicine instead of adopting these simple protocols.These are the doctors that are driving personal genetic testing, hair analysis, aminoacid analysis, hormone analysis, nutrient testing, and extensive blood and urinetesting on everything under the sun. This large-scale testing and the dozens ofsupplements and processes these practitioners recommend that arise from thetesting are extremely expensive and only complicate an already-complex picture.For example, for the most part, genetic testing sets you up for failure because4Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons Whytesters identify your top 100 gene variations. These tests are the very definition of“too much information” (TMI) and freak people out because there are no treatmentsfor gene variations. Many of our customers have told us that the fear of succumbingto these conditions leaves them in shock and feeling they have lost control of theirhealth. They wish they never had the testing.I’m sure some people benefit from genetic testing, but without naturaltreatment protocols, many people are misdirected down the medical rabbit hole.The new self-appointed genetic “specialists” are making it up as they go alongbecause there has not been enough research and there is no consensus on how tocounsel people with gene variations. To cover their “assets,” these counselorsrecommend more medical testing, which often leads to more potentially scaryfindings. They offer preventive medications or preventive surgery to removeoffending body parts “just in case”.Another legal privacy issue is that if you happen to have a rare genetic profile,they own that profile, because you signed away your rights to your genes. With arare genetic profile, you could be recruited to be a lab rat so they can experimenton your genome.THE LAYERING OF ILLNESSThe first years of my Toronto practice, from 1979 to 1985, were spent identifyinghypoglycemia and allergies in my patients. I urged my patients to avoid sugar andtheir allergy triggers. This trend continued until the mid-80s when I began seeingpatients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and Yeast Overgrowth. Yeastevolved from overuse of antibiotics and a highly refined diet. Unbeknownst to mostof the population, white flour and white sugar products – bread, donuts, bagels,cakes, and cookies – caused hypoglycemic episodes and were also feedingintestinal yeast. Along with CFS came adrenal fatigue and hypothyroidism. Each5Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons Whycondition and symptom added another layer, and very few doctors grasped thelarger picture.In 1993, when I moved to Manhattan and was involved in AIDS and CFSresearch, most of my patients had many layers of infection indicating that yeasttoxins had decimated the immune system. It wasn’t until the late 1990s that Irealized that magnesium deficiency and yeast overgrowth were at the root of mostchronic diseases. By the 2010s, early menopause, adrenal fatigue, andhypothyroidism became epidemic.Total Body Meltdown is the obvious result of the progressive layers of all ofthese imbalances and co-infections remaining basically untreated in someone’sbody. At first, I wondered if people might think me insensitive to talk about theirTotal Body Meltdown, but I’m happily surprised that it’s a term that everyonecompletely identifies with and feels accurately describes what they were goingthrough.BREAKING DOWN THE LAYERS Hypoglycemia – Caused by a diet high in sugar and simple carbs. Allergies –Allergens and undigested food molecules enter the blood streamthrough a leaky gut. Nasal and sinus membranes are also irritated by yeast andcause inhaled allergies. Yeast Overgrowth - From exposure to sugar and antibiotics causing a leaky gut. CFS – A combination of magnesium deficiency and yeast overgrowth caused bythe Downward Spiral (see below). Fibromyalgia – A cousin of CFS but with more severe magnesium deficiency,6Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons Whycausing symptoms of muscle spasms and trigger points. Hypothyroidism – Yeast toxins block thyroid hormone receptors and magnesiumdeficiency interferes with temperature regulation. Read my book, Total Body ReSetfor Your Thyroid. Adrenal Fatigue – The stress of illness and misdiagnosis creates a level of PTSDin a person and contributes to an ongoing magnesium deficiency that makes theadrenals trigger-happy and depleted.THE DOWNWARD SPIRALIn a paper about Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia that I wrote in 1988,I identified an ongoing downward spiral of health that has become epidemic andleads to these chronic diseases. It astounds me how many people say that thisdownward spiral mimics their health decline into Total Body Meltdown.

They throw them into the autoimmune bucket, or they blame yourgenes.Medicine has a very limited understanding of autoimmune disease. Onemedical website says, “Your body's immune system protects you from disease andinfection. But if you have an autoimmune disease, your immune system attackshealthy cells in your body by mistake. Autoimmune diseases can affect many partsof the body. No one is sure what causes autoimmune diseases.”The scary part about this statement is that nobody has a clue what causesautoimmune disease. Yet medical practitioners act like they know enough to treat itwith a barrel-full of drugs.Here’s my take on autoimmune disease. First of all, I don’t think the bodyattacks a “healthy self,” but it will attack a diseased self. So, you have to already bediseased or damaged to find yourself diagnosed with an autoimmune disease.Our amazing Radish Experiment comes to mind when I think of autoimmune9Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons Whydisease and a “diseased self.” Click on the link above to see the webinar about RnAReSet Drops and the video of our experiment using the “waste” product of the drops.Our RnA ReSet Drops are squeezed out of a few hundred pounds of barleyseeds that are germinated in huge rotating drums for several days. There’s a lotmore going on, but that’s the basic process. The leftover barley sprouts when driedlook and feel like straw. We call it “Mighty Mash,” and we’ve been experimentingwith as a living fertilizer. The Radish Experiment consisted of digging the MightyMash into the soil and planting radish seeds. One plot used the Mash while the otherhad no additions. Both plots were watered daily. The Mash plot was also “watered”with Mash tea – Mash soaked in a drum of water that was sprayed onto the Mashplot twice a week.On Day 25, both plots were harvested. The Mash plot produced 85 poundsof beautiful red radishes. The non-Mash plot only produced 3 pounds of radishesthat passed inspection. The majority were wormy, small, and deformed!Here’s what I realized from this experiment. Insects, worms, bacteria, andweeds are only programmed to “attack” weak, dying, or dead life forms. It’s theirprime directive – to take out the trash. Humans, animals, and plants are surroundedby similar invaders and only succumb when they are in a weakened state. RnA ReSetMash infused the radishes with life and energy and made them incompatible withthe organisms looking to cull out the weak plants.I say the same happens with humans. We weaken ourselves with a poor diet,bad lifestyle, and negative emotions and are told we have autoimmune disease. Ifwe have the right building blocks from ReMag, ReMyte, and ReAline and an infusionof life force from RnA ReSet Drops, we are no longer victims to predators. To me,it’s that simple, and that’s why I created the Completement Formulas.Even before the RnA ReSet Drops and the Radish Experiment, I knew that10Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons Whythe 178 toxins from yeast could trigger autoimmune reactions by cross-reacting withbody tissues. This fact was proven by immunologist Dr. Aristo Vojdani. Treatingyeast overgrowth goes hand in hand with treating magnesium deficiency whenovercoming autoimmune disease.LOOKING FOR A REASONWhen we fall ill, we spend a lot of time, energy, and money trying to find out whatwent wrong. It’s called “Looking for a Reason.” Finding out what’s wrong can turnoff that question and allow us to get better, but not finding out can hamper ourhealing.If you have a number of symptoms listed in the Downward Spiral, do youtake each of your body parts to a different specialist? Or do you realize magnesiumdeficiency and yeast overgrowth could explain the underlying reason that you areill?I tell people all the time that what they have been told is heart disease mayin fact be magnesium deficiency. The latter is much less scary because you knowyou can saturate your body with magnesium. Moreover, when your heart symptomsare alleviated, that confirms magnesium deficiency as the underlying cause.Dozens of different health conditions share common symptoms, which againimplicates magnesium deficiency and yeast overgrowth. In The Magnesium Miracle(2017), I listed the following 65 conditions that can be caused by magnesiumdeficiency but are misdiagnosed as medical conditions and treated with drugs and/orsurgery.Even if you have been diagnosed with one or more of these conditions, bemindful that you may simply have magnesium deficiency and yeast overgrowth. The11Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons Whylist is about magnesium deficiency, so I’ll add the yeast overgrowth componentwhere it applies.MAGNESIUM DEFICIENCY DISEASES1.Acid reflux. Spasm of the lower esophageal sphincter at the juncture of thestomach can leave the sphincter open, causing acid reflux, GERD, or heartburn.Magnesium relieves esophageal spasms. Yeast can grow in the stomach andproduce gassy toxins and symptoms of heartburn.2.Adrenal fatigue. Adrenal fatigue follows after a time of chronic stress, anxiety,and panic attacks, and it seems to occur in epidemic proportions. Adrenaline,noradrenaline, and cortisol (elevated in chronic stress) deplete magnesium.Stress causes excess elimination of magnesium through the urine, furthercompounding magnesium deficiency. Stress is such an overused word, but weall suffer physical, emotional, and mental stress every day, and every bit of itdrains magnesium. Elevated cortisol can feed yeast and contribute to yeastovergrowth.3.Alzheimer’s disease. Magnesium blocks the neuroinflammation caused by theinappropriate deposition of calcium and heavy metals in brain cells.Magnesium is at work even before the inflammation appears, guarding cell ionchannels and not allowing heavy metals to enter. Picometer, stabilized ionicmagnesium (ReMag) easily enters cells and can help eliminate heavy metals andsolubilize calcium. Yeast toxins can cause brain fog that can aggravate brainsymptoms.4.Angina. The pain of angina is caused by severe muscle spasms in heartmuscles, which are caused by magnesium deficiency. The heart ventricles havethe highest levels of magnesium in the whole body; this is why magnesium is soimportant for the pumping function of the heart.12Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons Why5.Anxiety and panic attacks. When the adrenals are no longer protected bysufficient magnesium, the fight-or-flight hormones, adrenaline andnoradrenaline, become more easily triggered. When they surge erratically, theycause a rapid pulse, high blood pressure, and heart palpitations. The moremagnesium deficient you are, the more exaggerated the adrenaline response.Magnesium calms the nervous system, relaxes muscle tension, and lowers thepulse rate, helping to reduce anxiety and panic attacks. Yeast toxins canaggravate anxiety by producing brain fog.6.Arthritis. Magnesium can help dissolve calcium that builds up in joint spaces. Itcan also treat the pain and inflammation of arthritis as a safe substitute for painmedication. Yeast toxins can be deposited in the joints.7.Asthma. Histamine production and bronchial spasms (in the smooth muscles ofthe bronchial tract) both increase simply as a result of magnesium deficiency.Yeast toxins can cause mucus build up in the lungs.8.Atherosclerosis with calcium deposits. Magnesium is necessary to helpdissolve calcium and keep it soluble in the bloodstream. Magnesium, along withvitamin K2, helps direct calcium to the bones where it belongs.9.Blood clots. Magnesium does not act like a blood-thinning drug. Instead, itprevents the calcium buildup that triggers clots. Magnesium naturally balancesthe blood clotting factors in the blood. Yeast toxins can thicken the blood, whichcan become worse with dehydration.10. Bowel disease. Magnesium deficiency slows down bowel peristalsis, causingconstipation, which can lead to toxicity and symptoms of colitis, IBS,diverticulitis, and Crohn’s disease. Yeast toxins can contribute to constipationand/or diarrhea.11. Brain dysfunction. You can obtain a free copy of the 355-page book,Magnesium in the Central Nervous System (2011) online and read an extensiveoverview of the beneficial effects of magnesium on the brain. Yeast toxins causebrain fog.13Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons Why12. Bruxism or teeth grinding. Up to 80% of cases of bruxism occur during sleepand your dentist may be the first to notice that your teeth are being graduallyworn down. Bruxism is related to clenching of the jaw muscles during the dayand is usually associated with stress or anxiety. Any muscle tension can be theresult of magnesium deficiency.13. Cholesterol elevation. When I was in medical school in the mid-1970s,normal cholesterol levels were around 245 mg/dL. In the first edition of TheMagnesium Miracle, I reported allopathic medicine’s “normal” value ofcholesterol at 180–220 mg/dL. Now, doctors are advising that cholesterol shouldbe below 200 mg/dL (5.2 mmol/L) to be considered normal. What doctors don’tseem to know is that magnesium, bound to ATP Mg(2 ) is the controlling factorfor the rate-limiting enzyme in the cholesterol biosynthesis sequence that istargeted by the statin pharmaceutical drugs. Thus, magnesium is responsible fornaturally slowing down HMG-CoA reductase activity when cholesterol is presentin sufficient quantities. To repeat, this is the same enzyme that statin drugstarget for destruction while creating magnesium deficiency.14. Chronic fatigue syndrome. It is remarkable how much magnesium, especiallyReMag, can help people get their energy back and get back on track by takingtherapeutic magnesium. We still don’t know what causes CFS, but I wonder ifcalcium excess and magnesium deficiency could be the underlying causes ofmitochondrial dysfunction that many natural medicine practitioners say cantrigger chronic fatigue syndrome and other chronic diseases. Yeast overgrowthis the second reason for the epidemic of CFS, and along with the yeast comethe many other layers of infection that are common in CFS. I would follow theyeast protocol in ReSet The Yeast Connection, paying special attention to PicoSilver.15. Cystitis. Magnesium deficiency causes bladder spasms which can cause urinaryfrequency that is often misinterpreted as a bladder infection. Magnesiumdeficiency can also allow calcium to build up in the lining of the bladder and14Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons Whyurethra causing irritation that mimics cystitis. We’ve had reports from elderlywomen who have thrown away their adult diapers because, apparently, ReMagdissolves bladder tissue calcification and eliminates incontinence. Yeast toxinsdischarging from the bladder can mimic the irritation of a bladder infection.16. Depression. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that elevates mood and dependson magnesium for its production and function whether it’s made in the brain orin the intestines. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that helps control the brain'sreward and pleasure centers utilizes magnesium in several steps in itsbiochemical pathway. A magnesium-deficient brain is also more susceptible toallergens and foreign substances, which in some instances can cause symptomssimilar to mental illness. Yeast toxins can invade a susceptible brain.17. Detoxification. Magnesium is crucial for the removal of toxic substances andheavy metals such as mercury, aluminum, and lead from the cells. Magnesium isa cofactor in both the production of glutathione and the function of the P450detoxification pathways in the liver. Yeast toxins are part of the total toxin load.18. Diabetes. Magnesium is necessary to make and secrete insulin; it facilitatescarbohydrate metabolism; and allows insulin to transfer glucose into cells.Otherwise, glucose and insulin build up in the blood, causing various types oftissue damage. Tyrosine kinase, an enzyme that allows glucose entry into thecell (along with insulin), is magnesium-dependent. Seven of the ten enzymesneeded to metabolize glucose in the process called “glycolysis” are alsomagnesium-dependent. This cycle functions in the cytosol – the waterycomponent of the cytoplasm. Yeast is fed when the blood sugar is elevated.19. Fatigue. Magnesium-deficient patients commonly experience fatigue becausedozens of enzyme systems are under-functioning. The most important factor inenergy production is ATP, which must be bound to a magnesium ion in order tobe biologically active. ATP is produced in the Krebs cycle, which requiresmagnesium in 6 of its 8 steps. The Krebs cycle begins by using pyruvate from15Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons Whythe glycolysis cycle and functions exclusively in the mitochondria. Fatigue is oneof the symptoms of yeast overgrowth and an effect of yeast toxins.20. Headaches. Muscle tension and spasms in neck and head muscles can bealleviated with magnesium therapy, which can be applied locally and takenorally. Yeast toxins can cause headache.21. Heart disease. The heart, specifically the left ventricle, has the highest amountof magnesium in the whole body. Magnesium deficiency is common in peoplewith heart disease and taking magnesium can reduce that risk. IV magnesiumcan prevent myocardial infarction damage and cardiac arrhythmia if given at theonset of a heart attack. Most drugs used in treating heart disease drainmagnesium from the body.22. Hypertension. With insufficient magnesium and too much calcium, the smoothmuscles lining blood vessels can go into spasm and cause high blood pressure.If cholesterol is elevated, which can also be due to magnesium deficiency,cholesterol can bind to calcium causing atherosclerosis in the blood vessels andworsening high blood pressure.23. Hypoglycemia. Magnesium balances the release of insulin so thatinappropriately large amounts aren’t released, which would cause the bloodsugar to drop suddenly, resulting in symptoms of low blood sugar.24. Indigestion. The gastric proton pump that acidifies the contents of thestomach for proper digestion is dependent on magnesium.25. Inflammation. Most drug companies are now embracing inflammation and notcholesterol as the cause of heart disease. They don’t know what causesinflammation, but that doesn’t stop them from producing drugs to suppress it.They don’t acknowledge that calcium is extremely pro-inflammatory andmagnesium is very anti-inflammatory. The entire inflammatory cascade(substance P, interleukins, tumor necrosis factor, chemokines, and cytokines)escalates when magnesium is deficient. The bottom line is that inflammation istriggered by magnesium deficiency and relative calcium excess.16Carolyn Dean MD NDwww.RnAReSet.com
Total Body Meltdown & The 65 Reasons Why26. Insomnia. Magnesium relieves the muscle tension that can prevent restfulsleep. Also, sleep-regulating melatonin pathway production is disturbed withoutsufficient magnesium. Magnesium is so effective as a sleep aid that if someoneis taking magnesium and their sleep is not improved, I say, “Take moremagnesium.” You may have to take ReMag to get the therapeutic effect withoutthe laxative effect. Yeast roiling about in the intestines and yeast toxins caninterfere with a restful sleep.27. Irritable bowel syndrome. In my book IBS for Dummies, I describe theimportance of magnesium in the treatment of pain and spasm in IBS. Yeaststimulated by a high-sugar, high-carb diet, which can cause symptoms of IBS.28. Kidney disease. Magnesium deficiency contributes to atherosclerotic kidneyfailure because calcium builds up in the kidney arteries. Magnesium deficiencyleads to abnormal lipid levels and worsening blood sugar control in kidneytransplant patients. It’s important for kidney patients to receive picometer,stabilized ionic magnesium (ReMag) that is absorbed directly into cells andtherefore does not build up in the blood to cause electrolyte imbalance andrhythm disturbances.29. Kidney stones. There is conclusive evidence of magnesium’s ability to preventand treat kidney stones, especially when combined with its partner, vitamin B6.30. Migraine. Deficiency of serotonin can result in migraine headaches anddepression. Serotonin depends on magnesium for proper balance. Also, tinyblood clots can block capillaries in the brain, leading to migraines. Magnesiumprevents calcium from causing excessive blood clotting. It is well known that IVand oral magnesium can treat and prevent migraine headaches.Musculoskeletal conditions. Insufficient magnesium and a relative excess ofcalcium will cause sustained muscle contraction in any muscle group in the body.Yeast toxins can deposit in joints and cause symptoms. The followingmusculoskeletal conditions are amenable to magnesium t
